“You don’t know us personally.”
This was the response of an irked Kris Aquino after one of her followers on Instagram asked why comedian Vice Ganda and not James Yap accompanied her son Bimby during the 46th Guillermo Mendoza Box-Office Awards.
On Sunday, Bimby was named as the Most Popular Male Child Performer during the Guillermo awards in Pasay City but neither Aquino nor Yap was able to accompany their son to the awards night.
Aquino posted a photo collage of her son during the awards night in her Instagram account.
A netizen (@sipaulina) then asked, “bakit hindi si James Yap ang pinasama mo? im sure mabilis pa sa alas kuatro! ‘And I’m sure #JamesYap shares my pride in how loving & lovable, kind hearted, well mannered, and smart our Bimb has become’ NO……. kasi kng ganyan sya tatay nya dapat ngayon ang kasama nya hindi ang honorary stepfather nya!”
The honorary stepfather referred to by the netizen was comedian Vice Ganda, a close friend of Aquino.
The TV host-actress made a lengthy reply to the netizen who “[made] pakialam sa buhay pamilya namin.”
Aquino explained that Bimby was still hurting from a misunderstanding he had with his father, James.
“”naka medication ako, so straight truth ito,” she started.
“I text James regarding a Father’s Day merienda for him w/ Bimb any day next week. He said Wednesday. “You don’t know us personally, you don’t know how much I needed to make pakiusap kay Bimb na mag merienda sila,” Aquino said.
She continued: “And since MAKULIT ka & gusto mo nang GULO, may nasabi si James na nasaktan ang feelings ni Bunso.”
Aquino said the misunderstanding happened last March.
“I got home from taping & he was still crying from their phone conversation.”
The celebrity then said: “Stop making it about my lack of effort, the fact I initiated for Bimb to see his dad even though my son still has hurt feelings means I have the ability to process emotions maturely.”
“And if you will continue to make pakialam sa buhay pamilya namin, please enclose address & contact details, kasi siguro sa super sawsaw mo, mag contribute ka na rin sa allowance & milk money ng Anak namin para naman you put your money where your mouth is,” she added.
This is not the first time Aquino responded to a basher on her Instagram. In January, a fuming Aquino also responded to bashers who called Bimby “gay.”
